- Omni® suite—features a complete 3-in-1 system that includes the Omni 4K video system to automatically capture and store data, Omni hysteroscopes for the convenience to see and treat, and the Omni cervical seal designed to improve procedural efficiency and help maintain distention by reducing fluid leakage
- Autoclave sterilization—user-friendly autoclave offers versatile program options for medium and larger loads to reduce overall cycle duration
Laparoscopy
The Acessa ProVu® system offers optimized technology for the treatment of uterine fibroids:
- Uses controlled radiofrequency energy (heat) to cause coagulative necrosis of the fibroid tissue—the treated tissue softens and shrinks over time, allowing fibroid symptoms to resolve without difficult and time-consuming uterine suturing2
- Targets more fibroids—unlike many alternative treatments, the Acessa procedure allows for a full view of the pelvic anatomy by simultaneously displaying the lap camera view and the ultrasound view in real time; it helps you easily locate and target nearly all types of fibroids, including intramural3
Advanced Energy and Surgical Stapling
Our precision surgical tools are designed to be easy to use, to simplify workflows, and to have minimal impact on the body:
- CoolSeal® vessel sealing portfolio—devices that dissect, grasp, and seal in one surgical instrument and maximize visibility in tight spaces; portfolio includes the CoolSeal® Trinity sealer/divider/dissector, the CoolSeal® Reveal open sealer/divider/dissector, and the CoolSeal® Mini sealer
- JustRight® 5 mm stapler—at less than half the size of others, the JustRight stapler is specifically created for small surgical spaces
We’re so proud of our growing portfolio of surgical solutions as well as the education, resources, and technical assistance we offer to support you in providing the best possible care. We hope you think of us as a partner—because together with you, we are shaping the future of gynecologic health.

Important Safety Information
Acessa ProVu System
The Acessa ProVu system is indicated for use in percutaneous, laparoscopic coagulation and ablation of soft tissue, including treatment of symptomatic uterine fibroids under laparoscopic ultrasound guidance. The Acessa ProVu system is contraindicated for patients who are not candidates for laparoscopic surgery and/or patients with a uterus adherent to pelvic tissue or viscera. The Acessa ProVu system’s guidance system is not intended for diagnostic use. Please read all instructions for use of the Acessa ProVu system prior to its use. Safe and effective electrosurgery is dependent not only on equipment design but also on factors under control of the operator. Rare but serious risks include, but are not limited to, infection, injury to adjacent structures, blood loss and complications related to laparoscopy and/or general anesthesia. Insufficient data exists on which to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Acessa ProVu system in women who plan future pregnancy, therefore the Acessa ProVu system is not recommended for women who are planning future pregnancy.
CoolSeal Trinity
The CoolSeal® Trinity sealer/divider is a bipolar electrosurgical instrument intended for use in minimally invasive or open surgical procedures where ligation and division of vessels, tissue bundles, and lymphatics is desired. The CoolSeal® Trinity sealer/divider can be used on vessels (arteries, veins, and vascular bundles) up to and including 7 mm in diameter. It is indicated for use in general surgery procedures including urologic, vascular, and gynecologic. It is indicated for use in adult and pediatric populations (infants, children, and adolescents). Procedures may include, but are not limited to, Nissen fundoplication, colectomy, cholecystectomy, adhesiolysis, hysterectomy, oophorectomy, etc.
Do not use the CoolSeal® Trinity sealer/divider for tubal sterilization or tubal coagulation for sterilization procedures. The device is contraindicated for use in ENT procedures.
For further information related to warnings, cautions, and directions for use, please consult the Instructions For Use.
CoolSeal Reveal
The CoolSeal® Reveal sealer/divider is a bipolar electrosurgical instrument intended for use in open surgical procedures in adults and pediatrics where ligation and division of vessels, tissue bundles, and lymphatics is desired. The CoolSeal® Reveal sealer/divider can be used on vessels (arteries and veins) up to and including 6 mm in diameter. It is indicated for use in general surgery and in such surgical specialties as urologic, thoracic, plastic, and reconstructive. Procedures may include but are not limited to, bowel resections, gall bladder procedures, Nissen fundoplication, and adhesiolysis.
The CoolSeal® Reveal sealer/divider is also indicated for open ENT procedures in adults (thyroidectomy, radical neck dissection, and parotidectomy) for ligation and division of vessels, lymphatics and tissue bundles 2-3 mm away from unintended thermally-sensitive structures such as nerves and parathyroid glands.
Do not use the CoolSeal® Reveal sealer/divider for tubal sterilization or tubal coagulation for sterilization procedures.
For further information related to warnings, cautions, and directions for use, please consult the Instructions For Use.
CoolSeal Mini
The CoolSeal® Mini sealer is intended for use in open and laparoscopic general surgical procedures to seal blood vessels and vascular bundles up to and including 5 mm in diameter for use in adult and pediatric populations, wherever vessel ligation is required.
This device is contraindicated for use in ENT procedures. Do not use the device within 1 cm of a cochlear implant. Do not use the CoolSeal® Mini sealer for tubal sterilization or tubal coagulation for sterilization procedures. Do not use this device on vessels in excess of 5 mm in diameter.
For further information related to warnings, cautions, and directions for use, please consult the Instructions For Use.
Fluent Fluid Management System
The Fluent® fluid management system is intended to provide liquid distension of the uterus during diagnostic and operative hysteroscopy, and to monitor the volume differential between the irrigation fluid flowing into and out of the uterus while providing drive, control and suction for hysteroscopic morcellators. The Fluent fluid management system may not be used to introduce fluids into the uterus when hysteroscopy is contraindicated. The system should not be used to remove pathologies from pregnant patients or patients exhibiting pelvic infection, cervical malignancies, or previously diagnosed endometrial cancer.
For detailed benefit and risk information, including contraindications relative to endometrial ablation, please consult the Instructions For Use.

Do not use the JustRight® 5mm Stapler 2.0 mm staples on any tissue that compresses to less than 0.75 mm in thickness, on any tissue that cannot comfortably compress to 1.0 mm or on the aorta. Do not use the JustRight® 5mm Stapler on tissue such as liver, hepatic vasculature, spleen, pancreas, or biliary structures where compressibility is such that closure of the instrument would be destructive. Do not use the JustRight® 5mm Stapler where adequacy of hemostasis cannot be verified visually after application. Do not use the JustRight® 5mm Stapler with a staple line reinforcement material. Adequate staple formation cannot be verified when using staple line buttressing materials such as PERI-STRIPS or SEAMGUARD products.
